My name is Dr. Nilesh Kansangra. I graduated from Temple University as a Dentist in 1990 and did my advance GPR training from The Cleveland Clinic VA Hospital in Ohio. I started my office in Laurel, Maryland in 1993. I also volunteer my services two days a week at Woodland Jobcorp.
I am a dentist in Laurel since 1993. I have a wonderful and supportive wife and we have three beautiful daughters. Family is a very important aspect in my life. I like to stay up to date in the dental field with ongoing training and learning to provide the best service for all of my patients.
At Main Street Dental, we provide dental treatment using modern, updated technology to deliver service to our patients in the old fashioned way, one patient at a time. We do not believe in treating patients as “just another number”. This excellent service cannot be provided alone without the true dedication from my exceptional and caring dental team.
I promise to help eliminate any lingering frustrations you have regarding dental issues and provide you with the right solutions. I assure you my team and I will always treat every situation with empathy. This is our guarantee. We are here to provide you with all the possible options so you can choose the right path with confidence. We look forward to meeting with you.
Hi, my name is Chetna Kansangra; I have been a Clinical, Consultant Dietitian since 1989. I was born in Kenya, studied in England and moved to USA in 1995. Travelling through three continents allowed me to gain clinical experience working with multiracial groups in different hospitals and communities.
My Dietetic work in the USA involves working mainly with residential agencies, consulting mentally and physically handicapped clients, and teaching the residential staff on providing healthy foods and maintaining optimal health. I also see private clients for individual personalized consultations. At Main Street Dental, I use my Dietetic knowledge to educate dental patients on the increasing awareness of the relationship between healthy teeth and healthy life.
I hope throughout my life I can make a difference to all my clients’ lives by increasing awareness of the choices they have, educating, motivating and encouraging a positive attitude to behavioral change. I truly believe life is a choice and every day we all have to make choices that determine the outcome of our health.
My name is Kalyani Sankaran. I was born in India. The first decade of my life I spent in Nigeria, Africa. Then I went to India where I studied the rest of my academic years. I have a Master’s degree in Commerce. I speak three languages: Tamil, Hindi and English.
I live in the Laurel area with my husband and two daughters. I joined the Main Street Dental team and have learned a lot about good communication skills. I strive to make all our patients’ visit comfortable and eliminate any fear or anxiety they may have when they come to the office.
In my leisure time, I love spending time with family and friends and actively volunteering at my temple. My objective is to be organized and make sure the office runs efficiently every day so all our patients and staff are happy.
Hi, my name is Jose Soto. I graduated in Brazil in 1990 and have more than 25 years of experience working as a dental lab.
I am married and have three children. Apart from working as a lab technician, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing soccer and motor cycle riding.
I love working at Main Street Dental because my work here is not like working in any other lab, where cases are made and just shipped out without any patient contact. Here at Main Street Dental, we offer same day implants and same day crowns which allows me to work with the doctor, see the patients, and use my skills to make each case to the patient’s satisfaction. I enjoy providing a personalized service to each patient, making sure each case is meeting the patient’s wants and needs.
